It may be linked to having Covid in some cases. I was booked for my 4th jab the first week I was eligible and then got Covid so I can't get it until next month. Not apathy just eligibility for me.

I think it is worth remembering that in Australia our vaccine uptake was quite low until we were coerced through mandates and restrictions.
We were generally described to be vaccine hesitant.

That report also mentions people with "vaccine-apathy" may not be considering the right information and listening to experts like Dr Fauci.
Those type of comments do not sit well with me. Fauci has his fingers deep in the Covid-19 pie. He made something like US$5m during the first couple of years of the pandemic (apparently most from royalties ... he's is a public servant getting paid about $400k/yr).

Yes, but nobody was complaining about it when it was being discussed in the proposals forum in the fishing discussion.
And I noticed before choosing the location that all sorts of stuff are dumped in the fishing discussion (eg. Friday Funnies).

(If people want it moved to General discussion, I'll try to edit and change it.)

Skull I think bluekaiser is fishing, fishing for attention.  

And getting plenty of bites. Just another non fisherman who studies internet . Also likes cut and pasting . Never posted fish photo . Just another polony man in my books . Could even be related .

 I Googled it and to be fair, it covers an awful lot of vaccines including Covid. I unfortunately know 2 people who reacted to the triple antigen as infants. One is severely handicapped and the other has non-verbal autism. Those would be compensable in the UK but 120,000 pounds is fuck all.

There are the official narratives about Polio and then there are the alternative narratives about the history of Polio and vaccines.

The alternate versions tell us about people being misdiagnosed as having Polio and how that was changed after the introduction of the Polio vaccines to ensure that very few cases were being reported, basically going from a person with flu like symptoms and achy legs being diagnosed with Polio to in 1958 having to show paralysis for more than 60 days and a strict pathology identification of polio.
Even today, we have things like Acute Flaccid Myelitis (AFM) and Acute Flaccid Paralysis (AFP) that would have been diagnosed as Polio pre-1950's vaccines.

And this is for a disease that killed about 320 Australians (or about 3.8 per 100,000) at it's peak in 1951.

And then there are theories involving DDT being to blame for much of the Polio cases.
And SV40 contamination in Polio vaccines '57-'63 causing cancer.
And I'll finish this quick summary of some of my limited knowledge with this quote I found last time I looked at the Polio jabs;
"Since 2017, there have been 396 cases of polio caused by the wild virus, versus more than 2,600 linked to the oral vaccine, according to figures from the World Health Organization."

 Would say about 10, closest to me was a close friend from 5 houses away caught it the same time as me, she had to have many operations to fix her deformities at PMH. At the time our school in Northam was brand new with only 7 class rooms, there would have been one or two in each class. 

Give you food for thought doesn't it

Insurance premiums have skyrocketed since the jabs and totally disproportionate to the number of Covid-19 excess deaths.
For example, my own insurance went up 14% from 1999 to June 2020 (actually a little less than the previous year). But then 64% for the two years from June 2020 to June 2022 (after the jabs started).
Likewise the excess deaths are far greater than just Covid-19 deaths and much higher after the introduction of the jabs.

CDC has previously stated that just 6% of Covid-19 deaths had no other comorbidities attributed to the death.
Each Covid-19 death had an average 2.9 other comorbidities.
This is supported by the very low percentage of deaths in the younger age demographics.

And anybody who happens to wake up to how the globalists use the mainstream media as a propaganda tool quickly realises that Associate Press and factcheck sites are regularly used to help push their agendas and narratives.

 You can please or fool some of the people with smoke and mirrors some of the time but in the end the blinkers must come off and the truth comes out. 

If you don't like it then go and shut yourself in a dunny and lock the door because  the world will pass you by

My sister lives in a rabbit warren and is onto all of them; new world order, fluoride, chem trails, 5G, vaccines, microchips in food etc but she shops at Woolworths, is constantly on her mobile phone 'researching' using Google and uses Facebook to spread her beliefs/theories. The funniest part is that she refers to everyone as 'sheep' yet she appears to sprout the same regurgitated tripe that I've have seen others posting on Facebook of all things. It reminds me of the goths and Emos who sought to be individuals and stand out of the mainstream....  by all dressing the same. The worry is that she is highly intelligent and a school teacher by trade.

 Interesting one isn't it. The jab did fuck all and Pfizer knew it all along. 

 These stories are everywhere. I feel sorry for the poor healthy people that have been forced to go through this.

The Covid-19 variants have become less fatal for all vaccination status groups.
The Case Fatality Rate (CFR) was above 3% with the early Alpha variant to now being less than 0.5% (even for the unvaccinated) with Omicron.
Any attempt to show what lives the vaccines have saved needs to consider the variants.
I have done statistical analysis that showed periods of time when the CFR actually went up in line with vaccination rates in Australia (when looking at the various stages of Covid-19 variants). That is, I struggle to see any correlation in a reduction of deaths due to increased vaccination rates in Australia.
For example, August '22 we actually had our worst month for reported Covid-19 deaths. The only other time close to August was Jan-Feb'22 which was our peak vaccination period.
Certainly in the US and Australia, the majority of our Covid-19 deaths have occurred after the vaccine roll out.

It has been extremely difficult to get good transparent data from Health departments in Australia and around the world.
Early, nobody would listen to any conversations about the vaccines not stopping infections or transmissions.
Vaccinated infections were occassionally spoken of publicly and described as breakthrough cases.
But with time and more people being vaccinated they could not hide the huge numbers of breakthrough cases.
Eventually they had to drop the narrative of the vaccines offering protection against infection and then hold on to the narrative about their effectiveness against serious illness and death.
But again, with large percentages of vaccinated participants there has been more evidence showing the vaccines are nowhere near as effective against serious illness and death either.
So again, they changed the narrative to how the vaccine effectiveness wanes over time and introduced the need for a third shot booster.
And then another, and another, ...

If you need a booster every 3 months, then how confident can anybody be that these jabs will give you even 50% effective protection for even the majority of a year? Plus consideration for the risks of getting each jab with our own AusVaxSafety showing 15% of those getting each booster need to take at least one day off work/study/normal activities due to adverse reactions.

I recently collated up the last 6 weeks of reported data from NSW weekly surveillance reports which has a table showing Covid-19 Hospitalisations and ICUs for the different vaccination status. That data (which may have some double counting due to the weekly reports are for the past fortnight) shows that for a vaccination status of "No doses" there was 4 Hospitalised (out of a total of 1,910) and 2 ICUs (out of a total of 184).
So even though there is still about 15% of the NSW population with no doses, they are rarely having to go to hospital with Covid.
 

Discussions about Covid-19 vaccines have become more controversial because of the lack of choice.

Many people like myself, who people choose to label as anti-vaxxers, are far more vocal and passionate about being anti-mandate than anti-vax.
Anybody here who has been reading my posts should have seen that I do not tell people whether to get vaccinated or not.
I may question why they have or want to, but nowhere do I tell them what they should or should not do in terms of getting vaccines.

I am pro-choice and want people to have the right to making informed consentual decisions regarding their health and vaccines.
A vaccine's effectiveness and risk is very much related to the individual and their circumstances.
For example, if I was a Health worker, I would get a Hep B vaccine. But current me gives myself the choice to evaluate my very low risk to lead me to an informed consent choice to not get the Hep B vaccine.

My intent is to provide alternative thoughts and evidence that most people will not see in their normal mainstream media or usual official channels.
I am pleased to know people can choose to take it, leave it, or debate it as they wish.
And so far, I have appreciated fishwrecked permitting me to do so without being cancelled.
